“…79 Solvothermal reactions occur normally in metastable liquids above their boiling point. Au nanorings on a glass substrate ( Figure 17a) were illuminated with a laser beam 10 μm in diameter, reaching a maximum temperature close to 200°C (473 K) (Figure 17b) and resulting in the synthesis of In(OH) 3 microcrystals (Figure 17c).…”

Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of plasmonic nanoparticles and nanostructures has attracted wide attention because the nanoparticles exhibit a strong near-field enhancement through interaction with visible light, enabling subwavelength optics and sensing at the single-molecule level. The extremely fast LSPR decays have raised doubts that such nanoparticles have use in photochemistry and energy storage. Recent studies have demonstrated the capability of such plasmonic systems in producing LSPR-induced hot electrons that are useful in energy conversion and storage when combined with electron-accepting semiconductors. Due to the femtosecond timescale, hot-electron transfer is under intense investigation to promote ongoing applications in photovoltaics and photocatalysis. Concurrently, hot-electron decay results in photothermal responses or plasmonic heating. Importantly, this heating has received renewed interest in photothermal manipulation, despite the developments in optical manipulation using optical forces to move and position nanoparticles and molecules guided by plasmonic nanostructures. To realize plasmonic heating-based manipulation, photothermally generated flows, such as thermophoresis, the Marangoni effect and thermal convection, are exploited. Plasmon-enhanced optical tweezers together with plasmon-induced heating show potential as an ultimate bottom-up method for fabricating nanomaterials. We review recent progress in two fascinating areas: solar energy conversion through interfacial electron transfer in gold-semiconductor composite materials and plasmon-induced nanofabrication.

Interaction of light pulses of various durations and intensities with nanoscale photonic structures plays an important role in many applications of nanophotonics for high-density data storage, ultra-fast data processing, surface coloring and sensing. A design of optically tunable and reconfigurable structures made from different materials is based on many important physical effects and advances in material science, and it employs the resonant character of light interaction with nanostructures and strong field confinement at the nanoscale. Here we review the recent progress in physics of tunable and reconfigurable nanophotonic structures of different types. We start from low laser intensities that produce weak reversible changes in nanostructures, and then move to the discussion of non-reversible changes in photonic structures. We focus on three platforms based on metallic, dielectric and hybrid resonant photonic structures such as nanoantennas, nanoparticle oligomers and nanostructured metasurfaces. Main challenges and key advantages of each of the approaches focusing on applications in advanced photonic technologies are also discussed.

A vast range of insulating, semiconducting, and metallic nanomaterials have been studied over the past several decades with the aim of understanding how continuous-wave or pulsed laser radiation can influence their chemical functionality and local environment. Many fascinating observations have been made during laser irradiation including, but not limited to, the superheating of solvents, mass-transport-mediated morphology evolution, photodynamic therapy, morphology dependent resonances, and a range of phase transformations. In addition to laser heating, recent experiments have demonstrated the laser cooling of nanoscale materials through the emission of upconverted, anti-Stokes photons by trivalent rare-earth ions. This Focus Review outlines the analytical modeling of photothermal heat transport with an emphasis on the experimental validation of anti-Stokes laser cooling. This general methodology can be applied to a wide range of photothermal applications, including nanomedicine, photocatalysis, and the synthesis of new materials. The review concludes with an overview of recent advances and future directions for anti-Stokes cooling.
